Used monitors in Varanasi typically sell for ₹5,000 to ₹28,000 (about $54 to $295). Monitors hold value reasonably well because panels last, and the range mostly reflects resolution and refresh rate rather than age.
Selling a monitor in Varanasi
Varanasi is among the oldest living cities in the world, with a silk weaving tradition that has run for centuries and a constant flow of pilgrims and visitors. Textiles and traditional crafts define what is distinctive here.
The lanes of the old city are too narrow for vehicles and genuinely difficult to navigate, so anything large has to be collected from the edge of them. The newer parts of the city are straightforward.
On silk, ask whether it is handloom or powerloom and check the weave in daylight. The difference is substantial in value and the trade here is old enough that honest sellers will say.
Varanasi, in Uttar Pradesh, has around 1.2 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Lucknow, Kanpur and Ghaziabad are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Varanasi
Demand climbs ahead of the festival season and again in the run-up to wedding season, when clothing, jewellery and home items all move faster.
